Don't I look totally differentー!!!!
Seeing my fringe so thin made me so 「Ooh……!」
「Woah……!」
I was really excited!
There's another cute pink outfit of mine but I'll post that another timeー‼️
It was my first time doing this kind of hairstyle and just doing such a cool shoot📸
So、I was really excitable and kept telling the stylist-san 「This is my first time doing this hairstyle!」ー!
And、if you look closely at my eyes
Well not my eyes but the bit underneath my eyebrows。
Look closely
There's rhinestones!!!!!
I've always admired the way my senpai wear them during concertsー!!!!!!!
I also have large hair clips、and cool star earrings so I really enjoyed this shoot!!!!
I've also never worn such heavy eyeshadow so it felt really really really fresh。
And And And
On the flip side I'm wearing a really pale beige lipstick
And that surprised me too!
Like 「It's so pale but so beautiful!」!
I wore a cool outfit and a pink outfit、so you can see two opposing styles but they're both Yumigeta Ako(?) So please read it and pay attention to that contrast〜❤️🔥
⋆┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⋆
Well then it's time for today's 【Gettaa Life】✨
Look at thisー!
Yesterday、when I looked out of the plane window at the airport I saw something!
A Demon Slayer planeー!!
It was so coolー!!!!!!!
I really love Demon Slayer〜!!!
Demon Slayer is what first got me obsessed with anime!!!
It was a huge hit when schools were closed which is when I was in 5th〜6th grade!(T/N School closures = covid lock down times)
I couldn't play with my friends while schools were closed so I spent my whoーle time at home and I was super bored、
But my best friend was talking about Demon Slayer、so I started watching it and I was like 「This is so interesting…!!!!」
So I asked Mama to buy me the Manga and then I started collecting goods…
I got super duper obsessed!!!!
I also made origami
Creator・6th grade Yumigeta Ako / Cameraman・6th grade Yumigeta Ako
They're pretty good
I was super obsessed with making Demon Slayer origami☺️
I was so proud of them I took them to school and showed them to my homeroom teacher like 「Look what I made!」😂
...
There are so many wonderful words in Demon Slayer、and I really love that about it💕
...
And with the covers of the manga、
I love the illustrations of the characters and the authors foreword and the titles each and every volume‼️
Writing all this makes me want to read it again。
Once YokoAre is over I think I'll reread the whole series from volume 1 ❤️🔥
I Getted 「Feelings of Love」✨
Demon Slayer is part of my origin story…
I'll always love itー!!!!!
That's all!This has been 【Gettaa Life】!
⋆┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⋆
T/N News and information has not been translated

Avataro Sentai Donbrothers: Final Live Tour
Memorial Photo Report with Main Cast Farewell Messages
ft. Special Contribution from Toshiki Inoue
(pages and translations below)
Publication: September 2023
"Memories of Donbrothers"
from Toshiki Inoue
"Would you like to do next year's Sentai?"
In the Summer of 2021, I recieved a LINE from Toei's Producer Shirakura.
"Alright," I responded.
This is basically how it was decided that I would be working with Producer Shirakura on this. That might have seemed like a ridiculously easy decision, but it actually held unspoken implications. Ultimately, what Producer Shirakura meant was, "Hey, Inoue, give yourself to me for a year. I hope your skills haven't gotten rusty. Better not do anything that'll disappoint me." As for myself, I though, "Relax, do you not know who you're talking to?" Basically, a serious competition had already begun with the first exchange of LINES. We held our first meeting at a bar, along with Assistant Producer Minato. It may seem inappropriate to hold it at a bar, but in a way, it's a necessary ritual to share a year's worth of drinks.
It was there that I first learned of the title,
"Avataro Sentai Donbrothers."
I couldn't do anything about my rapidly declining excitement for the Sentai I hadn't seen in such a long time.
"Avataro? Donbro? Are you screwing with me? This some kind of bad joke?"
No, no, I began to rethink as I sipped my whiskey.
It's fine, isn't it? When you first hear such a title, you won't forget it, and most importantly, it gave me the determination to do something new. To be honest, at the time, I had already secretly made up my mind.
Okay, let's start off the first episode of Donbrothers with a high school girl. We'll have a slightly dysfunctional high school girl drag the story along.
As far as I know, this was a first for Sentai.
This is because it's long been a taboo for Sentai that has boys as its main target. This time, we'll challenge the taboo. All because it's Avataro Sentai Donbrothers.
After many general meetings, when I'd finished the first draft of the first episode, as expected, many staff members raised their concerns, or rather, they decided by going, "….."
Is this really ok? Is this really Sentai?
I wouldn't argue. I had confidence. If my manuscript had power, that power would persuade those in the lower ranks, no, the entire staff, to go along with it. Well, it sounded idealistic, but the truth is that time ran out, and filming began while everyone was still in doubt.
Donbrothers is a bizarre show, and by the time we got to the fifth episode, the lower ranks, no, the entire staff was lost. Moving past the question of whether this was really Sentai, the feeling was more, "What is this show even about?"
With the fifth episode, "The hide away dog," the TV station's Producer Inoue (Chihiro) said, "I don't know what this show is about, but it's interesting. this is good." with that, most people began to agree with him.
Finally, let me tell you of an episode that happened after the show ended.
One night, as is the usual case, I was drinking alone at the bar.
The bartender there was a weirdo who was a huge Donbrothers fan that would buy me a drink if I told him about the next story. Naturally, when I went to that bar, I drank for free.
He was generous enough to give me a bottle as a gift for writing the last episode.
Then, the patron next to me started talking to me.
Patron: "Is it possible, are you the screenwriter Inoue-san?"
Me: "Yes" (said in English)
Patron: "I'm a big fan of Donbrothers. My girlfriend recommended I watch it, and I became hooked."
Me: "What a wonderful girlfriend."
Patron: "Actually, I've been addicted to XX for a long time."
It would be best for me to not disclose what XX is.
But, I'll stop myself at saying that many of the customer's teeth were chipped to the point of looking like they were completely missing.
Patron: "You see, that's the thing. I've recovered from my XX addiction. After watching Donbrothers, I think I've got a positive outlook on life."
I opened the bottle that the bartender gave me. Then, I proceeded to drink with the patron until morning.

Higuchi Kohei (Momoi Taro)
After I graduated high school, I spent my time as a trainee player for a professional soccer team. I had no desire to join the entertainment industry at all. Ever since I was in elementary school, all I would think about was becoming a pro. During the Fall, at 19 years old, when I was told by my coach that I wouldn't be able to go pro, my face went pale and I shut down. There were times where I would wake up thinking it's 6 a.m., only to realize it was 9 p.m.
But, I wish I could tell myself this at the time:
"Three years from now, you'll become a hero. You'll be taking in amazing scenery."
Once again, I'd like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to those that I'm most thankful for. To MORISAKI WIN-san. He sang wonderful songs for a whole year, songs that both gave me goose bumps every day, and that made really happy. And to the cast of eight who really supported me. I'd also like to say this to my old self: "You can make it with this cast. You're going to be truly blessed with such amazing members. Please be happy to be alive."
For the past year and a half of "Avataro Sentai Donbrothers," thank you all so, so much for your support!
_
Beppu Yuuki (Shinichi Saruhara)
First off, Let's all laugh, shall we? Donbrothers is a piece of work that's made me once again realize how much it's taught me. It's allowed me to grow alot.
For me, last summer I wasn't that confident with the character of Shinichi Saruhara, as I wasn't able to do what I wanted. I'm sorry to say this to all of you who love Donbrothers, but there was a time where I was on the verge of giving up. I don't understand what Shinichi Saruhara is thinking, he's alone all the time, and I don't get why he can't touch money. And yet, something about him made the people who watched smile.
At the time, what gave me the most support was the letters I received from everyone. Sending letters isn't that common these days, but everyone worked so hard to write me so, so many of them. Every single one of them really helped me.
Without this cast, I don't think Shinichi Saruhara would be standing so confidently here before you. Donbrothers is a piece of work that suits any emotion, whether you're experiencing something difficult or something happy. It's a work that I'll cherish for the rest of my life. I also met members whom I'll cherish for the rest of my life. Thank you all so very much.
_
Shida Kohaku (Haruka Kito)
For the support of Donbrothers over the past year, for coming to see us at the venue today, and to everyone who is watching the stream, thank you all so much.
Many things have happened over the past year, ofcourse there were fun times, but there were also times of hardship and alot of worrying. In the beginning, I sometimes expressed my complaints to my mother. However, I've been able to work very hard to get to this point thanks to everyone who came to these venues, my beloved members here who are like my big brothers and sister, and the staff who support me.
Donbrothers is loved by so many people. There has not been a single time that I've taken this love for granted. I will continue to cherish the love, courage, and energy that I've received from all of you, and will do my best to return as a bigger and better Donbrother. Thank you all very much again for the past year. I love you all so much.
_
Totaro (Tsubasa Inuzuka)
The past year and a half seemed like a long time, yet it was incredibly short. Tsubasa Inuzuka has been pursuing love, busy with love, conflicted with love…..That's the kind of year it's been. It was a year in which I also truly thought about love.
For the past year, many of you have loved Donbrothers and have been coming to the venues. The world is truly full of so much love. I really felt that Donbrothers was loved alot. As you can tell from everyone's speeches, the love for Donbrothers is very strong. It was a truly wonderful production, we talked about how we could've done it better, had alot of arguments, struggled alot, and we all shared the same moments together.
The past year and a half has truly been the most important time of my life. Because I really didn't want to leave the set, I didn't want to go home, I just wanted to keep watching everyone act. I felt that everyone worked hard, so thank you very much for the opportunity to perform in such a pleasant environment. And to everyone watching me here now, with this cast by my side, it was truly a wonderful experience. Thank you for all the happiness.
_
Suzuki Hirofumi (Tsuyoshi Kijino)
I've been an actor for alittle longer than the others, but I have no experience at all. I was never given a chance to perform in front of the cameras. In the few occasions where I would, I'd say a few words and that would be it. There was no need for the makeup artists to do me. So, I usually had to do my own makeup, travel to the site by myself, and prepare and bring my own costumes.
The wonderful, dedicated staff here worked from morning until night, and always put us first. I could've never imagined so many people coming to these venues to support us, or the support we've received behind the scenes. I've never experienced anything like this before, and I'm very pleased with the past year. I'm so grateful. There wasn't a day where I felt ungrateful.
For most of the past year, these eight people have been with me every day, more than my family, the members of my agency, and more than the teams I once belonged to. I love these eight people so much. When I look to my side, they're always there. I really, truly think that the faces of these eight will be the ones that I'll remember before I die. Thank you for letting me be apart of Donbrothers. And to everyone in this audience, to all the staff involved with the show, and to everyone behind the screen, for such a nobody like me, thank you for having me. As an actor who's graduated from Donbrothers, I'll live the rest of my life as an actor with pride.
_
Ishikawa Raizou (Momotani Jiro)
I was in the dark until Donbrothers began. Whatever I did, it wouldn't continue for too long. I had nothing where I could say, "I feel confident about this!"
I've been walking alone in the dark from a place where there was truly nothing, that was until the bright light of "Donbrothers" suddenly flashed before me. I though, "Wow, guess I have no choice but to go along with this!" but, I was really nervous in the beginning because I had the role of the additional warrior, a role that you take on around the middle of the show. Furthermore, Donbrothers takes place in a world where you don't know what's going on just by watching one or two episodes.
Even still, everyone in this cast is upbeat and has fun, they have an unbelievable amount of enthusiasm for this show. I love them all and Donbrothers so much. I've heard that people will sometimes meet together like this. I was also very excited about filming and had alot of fun. Donbrothers is the kind of show that made me imagine a new, slightly brighter future, even though I've been unable to see anything until now. I'd like to thank all of the fans, everyone here today, the staff, and all the performers of Donbrothers for making it possible for us to be here today. Thank you all so much.
_
Tominaga Yuya (Sonoi)
I've been crying so much that my head is alittle fuzzy, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep it together.
For the past year and a half, I've sincerely enjoyed my time here. Now, we, the cast, are going our separate ways. I'm more than sure that in the years and decades to come, you'll find something you love more than Donbrothers. For example, if it were Sonoza, he would become a manga editor, for Sonoi, she would run away with Tsubasa Inuzuka to know love, and Sonoi would meet up with Tarou and fall in love with oden together. The future is bright, because each of us can make our own decisions and find our own form of happiness. Just as I was able to become a member of Donbrothers because I continued to be an actor, the experience of working on Donbrothers has made me realize of the many possible opportunities ahead.
I will always love Donbrothers. Even if I quit acting or go down a different path, I'll never forget these bonds for the rest of my life. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
_
Miyazaki Amisa (Sononi)
First of all, I'm happy to have been able to attend this farewell performance. This may be abit personal, but Donbrothers was my acting debut. In the beginning, I was always thinking about the negatives, like whether I could actually play Sononi or why I couldn't do it every time we'd start filming. There were many times when I wondered if I was even suited for the job, and times where I didn't want to go on set.
Even so, I received kind words of encouragement and support from everyone in the cast. Sonoi and Sonoza especially helped me out alot. Thank you both so much. Throughout Donbrothers run, I started to enjoy acting alot more, and I started to think that I would like to pursue this kind of career in the future.
I'm sure everyone has their own dreams and goals, and I truly hope that Donbrothers can support you in your journey. We hope to be a Sentai that is loved by everyone and that you will continue to think of even in the future. Thank you all so much.
_
Takahashi Shinnosuke (Sonoza)
I know I don't have enough time to express my gratitude, but there are still some people I haven't properly thanked. I've written a letter. I'd like to take this opportunity to quickly read it.
Donbrothers. As the name implies, it's always overwhelming with its disorderly rampages.
Even though I'm the Chief Editor, she'll cheerfully drag me along. Even though she's easygoing, she's the most considerate. Even though she's the youngest, I'm always touched by her serious attitude. There are also those who seem to be "soft" but actually support you from the shadows. There's someone who'll laugh with you from beginning to end. Or, someone who joined us late, but we admire the way they say they don't want to be outdone.
I love all of you.
And then there's these two Noto's, warriors who I've fought together with in the face of an uncertain future. You spoke passionately about your thoughts and feelings, and I was able to do my best because of it. You were "soft" but dangerous, and I saw you genuinely trying your best, and that in turn made me try my best too. I love you both so much.
Thank you for letting me be one of you. I was very happy to be with you guys.

Happy Happy Christmas!!!!Yumigeta Ako (23.12.18)
Good evening🌛
I'm Yumigeta Ako🛑
Thank you very much for your comments yesterday!
I enjoyed reading about all of your jobs and careers〜!!!
...
All jobs have their challenges and special skills… I respect you all so much……
So people spend about 20〜50 years studying to perfect their career right。
But if you want to try lots of different career paths in your life you can't spend 20 years on each one…?
I want to be a police officer、and an architect、and a Starbucks barista、plus an idol but I've already achieved that!、and a florist、and an astronaut、and an interior designer、and a wedding planner、and a bank teller… plus I want to try being a Panda Nanny due to Yamazaki-san's influence…
If I spend 30 years on each one…?
30×9 is 270 years…????
That's obviously impossible…
But in the future I might actually want to go down a completely different career path insteadー
That's interesting tooー!!!!
Today I'll talk about my costume for our Christmas Event in a couple of days time‼️
It's super Christmassyー!!!!!
And my beretー!!!!
During the shoot、our makeup artist-san said
「Give it a try〜」 as she gave me this beret to wear…✨
When I was about 2 years old、I had a red beret which I really loved、and I wore it all through winter although obviously I've since gotten rid of it!
So it was my first time wearing a beret in quite a while!
I'm so glad I got to wear one〜✨💕
Plus my costume is a style I've never worn before
A checkered mini dress!!!
It's super cute〜💕💕💕
This shoot was super fun🎶
The set and the members costumes were all so cute and Christmassy🎶
Look forward to seeing our costumes in person during the event‼️
Ahー I'm so excited!!!!
You can see more details about our goods
Through this link💁♀️
Personally、winter is my favourite season…
(2nd is summer🌞🌴🌺✨ But I actually like them about the same♡)
One reason I love winter
Is Christmas‼️
And it's my first Christmas
Being able to sing and dance with you all('ω' )三( 'ω')ワクワク
I've always loved Christmas、but I bet I'll love it even more this year〜
But that's great〜!!!!
At least I think so!!!!!!
I expect
That it'll feel like spending Christmas with friends (*^^*)
I'm so excited‼️‼️‼️‼️
Today we had rehearsals for our Christmas Event🎅🎄
No matter how much we rehearsed I was grinning the whole time!
It's going to be such a fun event!!!!
I just hope I don't get ill now…!
It was super cold today😭
I'm going to stay warm by drinking some corn soup……!!!!
And And!
Christmas presents for the member-sans🎁
I actually haven't bought anything yet…
I have time before voice training tomorrow so I plan to go shopping then!
What should I buyー I'm so excitedー
⋆┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⋆
Well then it's time for today's 【Gettaa Life】✨
Recently、
I've sudden become obsessed with chocolate!!!!
Three days ago I ate Takenoko no Sato🍫
Two days ago I ate Choco Balls and a Chocolate Crepe Ice Cream🍫
Yesterday I ate Black Thunder Ice Cream🍫
Today I ate a chocolate bar🍫
I wonder why…🤔💭
I really don't know what happened
But I have a sudden chocolate obsession……
Today I bought some crunchy chocolate to eat✌️
There's a café selling chocolate drinks near to where I'm going present shopping tomorrow、so I think I might go〜( ´ࠔ`* )♪
So because I'm obsessed with chocolate
I'm going to tell you all about my recommended chocolate product‼️
【Ghana Ripple】‼️
It's chocolate shaped like a pretzel🥨🍫
It's regular chocolate inside、but it feels so bougie with it's thinness and it's flavour!It's just super delicious‼️
Plus this chocolate…
Each packet has、23 pieces……‼️
Huh?
Like Morning Musume。'23?
So、I felt like it was meant to be that I ended up eating it as a part of Morning😋
Everyone please give it a try tooー!!!
You Getted 「A chocolate recommendation、from Ako」✨
Speaking of chocolate、I really love Mister Donut's Pon・De・Ring that's covered with strawberry chocolate‼️
I always order it…!
I've loved it since I was a kid!
I haven't eaten Mister Donut for a while、so I wanna eat it again〜
…Maybe I'll go tomorrow?
That's all!This has been 【Gettaa Life】!
⋆┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⋆
T/N News and information has not been translated
⋆┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⋆
Today I listened to anisongs on my way to rehearsals!
When I listen to anisongs、I feel like I'm in the opening scenes for an anime、and I've become a character myself!
It's strange?Like huh!!
It can't just be me right!!!!!
So I love anisongs‼️
...
Today I listened to
Osawa Sho-san's 「Butter-Fly」‼️
And I listened to several PreCure songs too!
Everyone please give them a listen too〜‼️
Well then I'll see you tomorrow!
